Keep in mind the larger the wheel the greater risk of having rock and debris get lodged between the rim and caliper etc. Ive seen it happen a few times even running 14's. My buddy had a rock bend his front caliper bad enough the outer pad fell off somewhere on the trail.


I am running 14" wheels on 30's and several of my friends are running 14's on 32's. You get a little more cushion from the sidewall flex if you run a smaller diameter rim as well.

 

That is actually something that had not crossed my mind at all. Thanks for the heads up on that. I've ran 14's on every RZR that i've owned so far without any issues but never on a tire larger than a 30. I'm thinking 32's on 15's may be the best bet for me. I would like a 32 on 16" wheel but there's just not a lot of tires out there for that package.

 

They aren't mongrels but they are 32's with 14" wheels

 

I think most of us guys tend to go for looks over functionality. Its not a pickup its an offroad toy. Keep that in mind, funcitonality over style! If you make it look good and it rides like a turd you wont enjoy it! lol

 

Rub marks from 32" Mongrels.

 

Already have the SuperATV High Clearance Forward offset A-Arms in the mail. 32's will definitely be functional. Also plan on a lift soon as well, just have to see how these 32's look on the stock suspension to decide how much lift I want to go with. It won't be riding like a turd. Haha.

 

I would just get the plus a-arms and get some heavier springs to increase your ride height some over stock. I am not a fan of lift kits. Most of them just seem to move the upper shock mount down which is pretty cheesy. You can easily gain a couple inches of ride height with and Eibach Stage 3 spring kit.

 

good advice right here

 

I run 32" Pro Armor Crawler XG's on my RZR XP 4 1000. I use 14" MSA M-16 Bead lock wheels on mine. No lift with stock front springs and factory settings. No issues rubbing unless im at full droop or compression with the wheel cranked one way or the other.

As far as a lift, if you dont "need" it for functionality you will get a better ride leaving it off. If you need it just for clearance then no more than 3". I had a 3" lift and its sitting on the shelf after 1 ride. The ride quality plain sucked after putting the lift on.

Do a lot of people run aftermarket 32" tires on the stock cast aluminum wheels it comes with?

 

2016 highlifter edition. Maxxis Liberty 32x10x18 with MSA wheels. I don't have to worry about rocks like mentioned above. Drive it for the first time today with this tires. Trying to figure out where air pressure should be.

 

Here is another.

 

The lift kit only changes your static ride height. Your wheel travel is still the same.

Unless you change your wheel travel, forward position, turning radius, or wheel backspace youre still going to rub. Look at your suspension and examine how it really works and how a lift kit will not solve rubbing.

 

On the kits that I have seen, it moves the upper shock mount down..... It doesn't just change where you ride in the stroke. When the shock is fully compressed the the tire won't get nearly as close to rubbing as it does without the lift so it will help with rubbing but it completely changes the geometry. Lift kits are a really stupid idea.

 

I think this picture has 30s, soon after I changed to 32s.
I'm running 15" wheels and also have the control arms that push the front wheels forward a couple inches.
I get slight rubbing on back of the fender at full lock/stuff and a little on the top of the fender flares.

Love it with the 32's.

Did you adjust your clutching at all after you went to 32s?

 

Mine is a 900 also fyi. ^^

32" on 15" No Limit wheels work good for me

 

You have to have some rub marks by now Frank???

 

I run 32" outback maxx's on a 17 hd4 wheel with no issues on my xp4 on stock hight...

What offset are those wheels??

How do the outback maxx tires ride??

 

Any lift kit that changes the geometry is going to affect the ride. I ran the highlifter kit pictured earlier on a 2014 XP41000 and it rode like $hit afterwards. Harsh ride, bad roll, loose in corners. I took some preload out of the springs which helped some but then I lost the clearance I gained. Great kit for tire clearance and the mud which it was designed for but the ride manners on the trail were terrible.

 

No clutch work yet but I am going to get something done bc i did lose top end power but the lower end power still fills fine.

I appreciate the info.

 

No problem on a side note ...there's no way I'm going back to 30's. The clearance I gained is worth the lose of top end power.

I love the 4 seater but, I get high centered and rub the chassis way to much...so I hear ya.

 

Eibach Stage 3 springs really helped with my ride height. Given I still have to watch certain places with the long wheel base, I don't have nearly the problems that I had stock. With my RZR empty, I have about 15" of clearance in the front and 14" in the back. That is with 30" tires.

 

They are a little stiffer but not as bad as I thought they would be i ride alot of rough trails and my wife doesn't complain so I say there not bad at all lmao

I am really thinking strongly of upgrading to 32" Pro Armor crawlers. I have a Racertech lift and love it!! My question is this. Do I need to do clutch work as well or can I leave it stock?

 

Whether you need clutch work or not depends on how performance oriented you are. If you are just a mellow trail rider then no, you probably won't need to mess with the clutch. If you want the most performance possible, you are leaving a lot on the table by running 32s and stock clutching. I would call Sparks or Airdam and have them put together a custom kit for your RZR/application.

 

I bought 32" Outback maxs on a 17" wheel, 3-5 bracket lift, Dalton clutch, arched arms and radius rods. Should have it back this weekend with the clutch and lift installed. Arms and rods ate in transit. I'm pretty stoked.
